I would have thought that was a great reason to remove said tree. I don't understand council reasoning (assuming I've read that right).
The nice old Lady over my back fence had a 3 story tall mango tree. It completely wiped out my southern view, as did my 2 story house to the north. She and I both wanted it gone (for different reasons), but neither of us could afford to bring it down professionally.
Last week I came home from work, and it was gone! I now have a clear 200 deg between East, South and West. I plan to set up some automated irrigation for her new open back yard, at my expense. It's the least I could do in appreciation.
